Note to @renuaireland: your new recruit makes a damn good coffee cake. Godspeed @DrennanPolitics, sorry to lose you from the press corps

John Drennan (top in Capitol Hill, Washington DC), Sunday Independent’s combative, metaphor-spinning, left-bashing political correspondent joins Renua as director of Communications.
Fight!

Mixed metaphor man to the rescue.
Mangled metaphors more like….
Just when I thought Renua couldn’t become more farcical.
a person proud to call themselves a “blue shirt” says alot when you align yourself with a parties grim racist past (or present )
Is he worried about someone pinching his car tax?
what’s he got, Methuselah syndrome?
Jesus, I’d hate to be reading his communications. He’s a man of many words, but when put together they mean very little and have no relevance on the subject.
Or to be blunt, he’s full of shite, a waffler of the highest order.
Expect many analogies being ‘a bit like the fella at the Ballinasloe horse fair who (insert thing here)’
Let me…… Let me… “bought a pony for fifty euros but forgot to check its teeth.
“bought a chainsaw for a hundred euros and discovered it went blunt cutting turf”.
Inspiring
Int’he?
lol
Has he just won “Best mongrel in Show” or something? I suspect he’ll be back hacking in a year.
it does tell you a lot about the precariousness of modern journalism that someone would leave a so-called newspaper (obviously the jury is still out on that point where the Sindo is concerned) to work for a political party that will be lucky to get a few county councillors elected, and will probably have dissolved in 12 months. What does Drennan know about the future of the Sindo, I wonder?
Renua are like that band of oddities from Mystery Men.
How are they paying him? Aren’t they denied any state funds?
And it does seem odd to leave a cushy one in the Sindo for a party that, judging by the reaction to their creation, are gonna fall flat on their faces come the election?
Can’t stand the blowhard anyway.
I’m a flea bit peanut monkey
All my friends are junkies
That’s not really true
I’m a cold Italian pizza
I could use a lemon squeezer
What you do?
But I’ve been bit and I’ve been tossed around
By every she-rat in this town
Have you, babe?
Well, I am just a monkey man
I’m glad you are a monkey woman too
I was bitten by a boar
I was gouged and I was gored
But I pulled on through
Yes, I’m a sack of broken eggs
I always have an unmade bed
Don’t you?
Well, I hope we’re not too messianic
Or a trifle too satanic
We love to play the blues
Well I am just a monkey man
I’m glad you are a monkey, monkey woman too, babe
I’m a monkey
I’m a monkey
I’m a monkey man
I’m a monkey man
I’m a monkey…
The first line on his Wikipedia – “John Drennan (real name Sean Armstrong) is an Irish political journalist and writer.”
Why would a journalist change their name?! Is that true?
He’s trying to stay one step ahead of the cops.
Shaun Ryder?
Speaking of The Happy Monday’s, isn’t Bez running against Farage and Al Murray in the BGE on Thursday?
